Crossing the Uncanny Valley: Breakthrough in technology for lifelike facial expressions in androids

Research found upward social mobility throughout a person’s life correlates with a prolonged period of dementia-free aging means that improving socioeconomic conditions could be a key to dementia prevention and healthier longevity

Researchers find that mind wandering, especially when associated with less pleasurable and more vivid and imaginative self-generated thoughts, is associated with a specific pattern of brain activity linked to memory and sleep

Researchers have discovered that regular dietary supplementation with tricaprin results in significant regression of atherosclerotic lesions, leading to coronary artery plaque regression and the alleviation of symptoms in patients with triglyceride deposit cardiomyovasculopathy

Some species of parasitic nematode worms are known to be attracted to cancer cells; scientists have developed a way to cover the worms with a thin hydrogel sheath loaded with anti-cancer drugs, with the aim of using live worms as drug delivery agents

In a study recently published in Nature Human Behaviour, researchers from Osaka University revealed that 8-month-old infants can punish antisocial behavior exhibited by a third party

Researches developed a nanocellulose paper semiconductor that provides both nano−micro−macro trans-scale designability of the 3D structures and wide tunability of the electrical properties, and can be tuned for use in a range of sustainable electronic devices

Faulty transportation of messenger RNA is the culprit in ALS

Researchers have succeeded in terahertz imaging of early-stage breast cancer less than 0.5 mm without staining, which is difficult to identify even by pathological diagnosis

Scientists have discovered a novel mechanism called a “microtube implosion,” and demonstrated generation of megatesla (MT = 1010G) order magnetic fields via particle simulations using a supercomputer

Temporary salt crystals may provide a permanent solution to Alzheimer’s

Thermoelectric power generation at room temperature: Coming soon? Researchers create a thermoelectric material (ytterbium silicide) with a high power factor at room temperature.

Materials that emit rainbows: Mechanochromic luminescent (MCL) materials change their color in response to a change in their environment.
